Fastwürms: Pirate Cultures, Queerness, and Beautiful Losers (The Secret Ingredient - 10/06/15)

The Secret Ingredient

Art collective Fastwürms enacts witch positivity, working class aesthetics, and queer politics through their multidisciplinary practice that includes video, installation, and performance art. The duo, Kim Kozzi and Dai Skuse, discuss queerness, distopias, the biological world, and the act of imagining alternate models. What can be gained through negotiating collaboration, shared authorship, and ways of working that resist capitalist culture? The secret ingredient in art: “’Do what you will, harm unto none’ is our motto. Love is the law. It comes from love, it comes from light, always.” Halberstam, Judith, The Queer Art of Failure, Duke University Press: 2011.
